Boundaries
“A personal standard of behavior that becomes a matter of conscience”
18 Flee from sexual immorality. All other sins a person commits are outside the body, but
whoever sins sexually sins against their own body. 19 Do you not know that your bodies are
temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your
own; 20 you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies. 1 Corinthians 6:18–20 (NIV)
BOUNDARIES FOR MARRIED PEOPLE
- Don’t travel alone with members of the opposite sex.
- Don’t eat alone with members of the opposite sex.
- Don’t confide in or counsel members of the opposite sex.
When you feel your heart drifting toward another person, confide in a special godly friend.
Your spouse needs to know your stated guardrails.
Pray together daily with your spouse.
BOUNDARIES FOR SINGLE PEOPLE
- Treat a married person the way you want someone to treat your spouse when you are married.
“Treat your date like a sister or brother.” Don’t start something you are not supposed to finish until marriage.
